Meal Rotation Planner — Nutritious Backpacking Meal Recipes

Brewers yeast is a bi product of the beer making industry while nutritional yeast can be grown on a variety of different mediums like molasses. First off, I would never use the flakes just because it remindes me of fish food.

I live in Israel, and fell in love with Brewers yeast while here a good friend puts it on her popcorn! It came out awful! I tasted the yeast I bought and found it to have a very pungent strong unpleasant flavor.

To me it tasted like processed cheddar cheese. I went out to the health food store to try a few other brands, and while some were milder none of them had that savory addictive umami flavor of the yeast I buy in Israel. So, yes the flavor has everything to do with the brand and on what medium they grow their yeast. Good luck finding a brand you enjoy!

So I would either go organic or switch to another organic protein source. Plenty of organic plant based products out there. Do you pre-cook and dehydrate in advance so that it rehydrates quickly with minimal cook time?

David, the pearl couscous takes a bit longer to re-hydrate but not much longer than the freeze dried veggies. Usually about 10 min soak after boil does it. I noticed you used whole wheat noodles. Are you able to rehydrate these by soaking or do you have to boil them?

Hi Pat, good Q. The smaller whole wheat pastas do reasonably well and usually re-hydrate to a decent softness when soaked in boiling water for around 10 min. The longer the better tho. We typically use the smallest elbows we can find.

Whole wheat couscous does really well. For most meals, not just pasta, if you cook in pot, a brief simmer of minutes after boiling before taking it off the stove helps.
